So officially a bust
If Lonzo is a bust, he's certainly not alone

2017 Draft:

  1. Markelle Fultz
  2. Lonzo Ball
  3. Jayson Tatum
  4. Josh Jackson
  5. De'Aaron Fox
  6. Jonathan Isaac
  7. Lauri Markkanen
  8. Frank Ntilikina
  9. Dennis Smith Jr
  10. Zach Collins
  11. Malik Monk

Tatum is the only star, with Fox and Markkanen being good.
The rest of those guys, you could take em or leave em.

Pelicans on the verge of blowing it up again. Atkinson would have been the best hire for this team because the expectations would have been at the floor while cultivating the youth.

shyt is insane considering the pieces they had/have at least kinda looked good on paper but that was based on Zion hype and thinking BI would do what he did last year. Zo, on the other hand, is looking very suspect and every year that follows is “his year” and then he doesn’t do shyt.

I’d rather have Gelo out there jacking up threes and actually making them. Zo better do his best Melo impression and make a case for himself.

but if you’re the Pels, realistically what do you do since blowing this shyt up makes more sense than hunting for one more piece that makes this shyt work? AD and CP3 made it very clear that big name dudes don’t wanna be down there. SVG just ain’t that dude as a coach either and this team needs a make over all the way down to their ugly uniforms

Bulls would do well with a pass first PG.

Sure but its hard to have a PG that's not a threat to reliably shoot or get to the rim

Lonzo available

I think we should trade for him but he's gonna want 15-20 million this off season. That's a high price tag

12 mill max

Isaac has DPOY potential but stays injured. The rest are scrubs tho:francis:

Colby, Ball, and Lavine? :blessed:


No.

Bulls are fine.
They need to redevelop a simple flex cut front court with interior based play with some tenacious heart as their main focus. Then develop the inside outside punch of their frontcourt as perimeter shooters. Till they stick to interior punch based basketball.
Coupled with zach.
acting as their elected long range shooter.
with a fluid create off the dribble green light from the perimeter.
They will really never learn the first mini maij game it takes to win in bball.

I keep saying SVG is a fill in coach. Cp3 and AD can shyt on us if they want when really all they wanted was to play elsewhere. Cp3 getting passed around like a blunt so he can be quiet. We need new faces in n.o. learning the same lesson LSU did. Stop hiring old people because of a name.

Lonzo is what he is at this point and his future is high level role player with All Defensive Team potential. He may be capable of one day getting you 15 and 7 but just like years ago until he improves that jumper and especially from the free throw line he will always be more of a liability instead of an asset on the court.
